Your thoughts on this?
I think this is a fallacy. Planes are generally empty, airlines are cutting flights and I do not know anyone nor have I heard of anyone, who has come down from New York to escape the virus.
We have many , many cases in South Florida, yet the governor has not imposed restrictions as have been done in other states. Beaches remained open except when closed by local authorities.
Blame others and don’t take steps to protect your own state.
